Bloomin Heart


This Bloomin' Heart is one of my favorite items from the Occasions Catalog.

This is on it's way to my Aunt Marian.  She loves pink.

I pulled out a frame from my snippets (it's a leftover from diecutting stitched rectangles)
and embossed it.  It works really well to anchor vellum so the adhesive doesn't
show on the front.

I adhered the die cut heart on the vellum.

After cutting some extra flowers (the dies are included), I sponged them 
with ink and added a yellow center with a SU Marker.

While holding my breath, I stamped the sentiment.

Such a relief to get it straight!

I'll take it over to







since I used a snippet of a frame and snippets for the little flowers.

  16. Just delicate & beautiful and perfect for your Aunt. Love the frame work, and had to look back after reading the post, to realize it _was_ framed. At first just thought the pink was adhered to the mesh embossing. THat's a super idea to hide the stick-it stuff for vellum..and this is so pretty in the pink with that gorgeous heart. Loved the added flowers too. Happy V. Day. TFS & Hugs
